# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It comes together in literally five minutes flat, perfect for those mornings when you're running late but still need something to look forward to
  • The way the Milo dissolves completely into hot water before hitting the ice means no gritty powder at the bottom, unlike every other chocolate drink attempt I've made
02 -
  • I learned the hard way that using cold water to mix the Milo leaves you with grainy clumps that never fully dissolve, no matter how much you stir
  • Adding the milk last and stirring only once or twice keeps those beautiful chocolate ribbons swirling through your drink instead of turning it uniformly brown
03 -
  • Make the Milo paste ahead of time and keep it in the fridge, just give it a quick stir before using
  • For a coffee version, mix in some instant coffee with the Milo powder for a mocha twist that's absolutely next level
